I picked up a frabil headquarters last winter basicly for half price becouse of the crappy winter. My three boys usually go fishing with me and sometimes my wife and daughter. This thing is huge. And only wieghs 30lbs.

Doesnt the wind blow those popups away?

frostbit · « **Reply #35 on:** Nov 17, 2012, 05:48 PM »

Mine came with six or eight ice anchors to hold it down.

Thanks to this website I've added some PK lures, some different tip-up lines and hooks to try, and am going to pick up a flip-over shanty. Needless to say I already bought enough stuff, reading about other guys buying and using ice fishing gear doesn't help haha.

Just got a new Thorne Bros sweet heart rod and continued my never ending quest for more Fiskas and jigs. I also picked up a 7 inch auger blade for my Strikemaster magnum.

Those damn Fiskas are addictive aren't they? I know I've already got plenty, but I have this nagging feeling that I should buy some more!

Nope, no desert this year been back almost 5 months now and got another 5 before they can send me anywhere!

Gonna try and make it home a few weekends to hit the ice. Im going to be changing jobs come spring and will be getting restationed so Im hoping its somewhere cold so I can ice fish! If I get my way ill end up in upstate New York, Colorado, or Alaska so we'll see.

I wanted the elite 4...then realized I'd have to repurchase lake maps for it because I use my garmin legend hcx. So my wife said get the cheaper version and ill buy you a new gun.

Ok!

Clam Big Foot XL400T, a pair of extreme mittens, 3 sets of down hill skis to make smitty sleds, jigs, anchor drill adapter, clam table. Still working on buying some more stuff.

Michigan1 · « **Reply #50 on:** Nov 26, 2012, 07:18 AM »

Just got a hummingbird flasher can't wait for that and next will be a power auger when I save up enough. I got the clam nanook last year and love it nice warming station.

NYSporty · « **Reply #51 on:** Nov 26, 2012, 07:22 AM »

New jig pole, mustang floating bibs and Striker climate jacket so far.
But Santa is bringing me a gps, and a nils 4.5 hand auger.

IceinKzoo · « **Reply #52 on:** Nov 26, 2012, 09:30 PM »

I'm going to get some tipups for the first time. Never tried them. Also a Frabil straight line reel and a smaller hand auger. I have a 8 inch lazer and found out that is more than I need for pannies. I bought a Eskimo Z71 last year for thick ice.
